Lower & Upper BRS Clear

Well, almost clear. We've finally started doing our guild only-raids as planned earlier in the month. We stepped up to lower BRS with 11 people and cleared the whole thing with I think only one death. It was still early enough in the night, and we'd just finished the turn in for Cohren's Upper BRS key that we figured what the hell, we'll go in with 9 people (a couple folks had to log) and see what we can do.

As it turns out, 9 people can do quite a bit (and we had a few people in the level 56 and 57 range of those 9). We cleared everything from the entrance to the Beast. In short, the only named left standing was the General. It was getting late after The Beast so we decided it might be best to leave him for another night.

Way too much loot dropped to keep track of. There had to be thirty pieces in total or more. Unfortunately a lot of them were greens that few people would use, but there were some really nice blues in there as well. We just wish there had been a few more weapon drops as we're sorely lacking sources for solid 1handers.

Anyway, on to the corpses:

Omokk Urok Overlord Wyrmthalak
goraluk Halycon Gizrul
General Rend The Beast


In other news, Juwdas has been appointed an officer of Zephyros today. Both congratulations and condolences are in order for when you see him. He'll help Olorus and I with the administrative duties of running the guild and will hopefully be instrumental in running more raids for us given my recent limited online time.

General Drakkisath
Update While our first run we didn't kill the general, and we're long over due in posting this since we've been farming Onyxia keys for a while, but we figured we'd toss in a screenie of a dead General from a Zeph-only raid for purposes of completeness.

As Promised


In last week's update I promised I would post some screens of some dead bosses with Zeph-only groups. As promised here's a 4 person Eranikus kill and our first full Zephyros-only kill of Emporer Thaurissan of Blackrock Depths. Loots dropped or something and there was much rejoicing

In other news, Scholomance keys are completed for many people, with others only being a step or two away. We'll probably start hitting that next week with guild groups. Cohren has our first completed upper Blackrock Spire key and we should have the people in the right classes and levels to begin raiding at least the lower spire as Zeph-only no later than next week. The goal is to start doing the Upper Spire Zeph-only by the end of the month.

We'll keep you posted on the progress. :)

Casual Update Time

Well in spite of many of our members being away for the holidays or otherwise indisposed (including me), we're moving right along progressionwise. On that note, it's probably time for a little update before the site gets too far behind.

Our members having cleared Sunken Temple, Blackrock Depths and some of our 60s are raiding Blackrock Spire in pickup raids with other Alliance 60s. Yay us or something. At some point I'll post a few screens to show how nifty we are.

I'm guessing at the moment (because I'm posting from my living room and don't have the game roster in front of me to verify) that some 15 or so of our members are level 50 or higher. In a week I'd imagine that that number will double or more.
